i need the torque spec for some arp head studs/ b16 head ls block

 

Tq them to 22 ftlbs
then to 45
final to 65.

 

That doesnt sound right to me... But I dont have the sheet in front of me so I cant say for sure...

However, I do know the torque specs will be different depending on wether you use their molly lube, or just regular motor oil... So which are you using???

 

thats for molly lube

 

is the lube for the rod bolts the same if so then i have that, if not i will be using oil

 

Moly lube is moly lube. Its the same thing. just make sure you pre load the studs/bolts. TQ them down, loosen, TQ them again, loosen, and do that 1 more time and then TQ them down for good. this will pre strech(pre load) the studs/bolts so you get a more accurate TQ reading.... Good luck

 

70 FT LBS for ARP MOLY ASSEMBLEY LUBRICANT or torque to 85 ft lbs with 30 wieght motor oil

BUT this is at 75% for those studs and here is the most importand part(BELOW)

do to the expanision rate of ALUMINUM, it's recomended that the torque should be 65 ft lbs with ARP MOLY ASSEMBLY LUBRICANT (honda blocks are aluminum)
SO if you are going to use moly lube TQ them to 65, if you use Oil TQ them to like 70-75

Good luck

 

thats more like it cause i no i do mine at final Tq 77Lbs with lubeand do in order

 

meh... I overtorqued mine a bit so I wouldnt have to go back and do that 1000 mile re-torque bullshit

 

thanks for the help
